Young father who died in M5 crash is remembered as a 'gentle giant'
Joshua Bruton, 30, died after a van collided with a Volkswagen Transporter, and police are asking witnesses and dash-cam holders to come forward.
Families have paid emotional tributes to two men, Daniel Hill and Josh Bruton, who died in separate road collisions this week.
Hill, 43, died when his BMW motorcycle left the carriageway in Banbury Road on May 1; Josh Bruton, 30, died May 6 when his Luton Van collided with a Volkswagen Transporter near Tewkesbury in Gloucestershire.
Describing Hill as a "beloved son, husband, father, brother, uncle and son-in-law," his family mourned the loss; Josh Bruton's family celebrated him as a "gentle giant" and "the best daddy" to his two-year-old son, Caden.
Regarding the Hill collision, Northamptonshire Police arrested two men, aged 41 and 35, on suspicion of aiding and abetting causing death by dangerous driving and drink driving.
Detectives from the Serious Collision Investigation Unit seek dash-cam footage for the Hill case, while officers investigating Josh Bruton's death ask witnesses to contact 101 citing incident 227 of May 6.
